When I attended Temple almost fifty years ago (yikes), if you got one block off of the campus you were in a war zone. My husband saw an adult student shot and killed on campus (I wanted to kill a white guy was the killer's excuse).
Sorry, I cannot feel sorry for this author.

My grandson goes to St. Joe's Prep and I've been down in the neighborhood quite a few times recently. Although things have gotten much less scary South of Girard Avenue, north of Girard is still Beirut.
